Rest assured, I'm here to assist you in finding a solution.
While your client's bank account may not have a direct link to QuickBooks, we can explore a few options to ensure we pay off these bills within the system. If reimbursing a personal expense, you can record it as a cheque or an expense.
First, let's record the business expense you paid for with personal funds:
- Choose+ New and select Journal Entry.
- On the first line, click the expense account for the purchase.
- Enter the purchase amount in the Debits column.
- On the second line, choose Partner's equity or Owner's equity.
- Enter the same purchase amount in the Credits column.
- Click Save and close.
To facilitate the reimbursement process, we can record it either as an expense or a cheque. For a step-by-step guide, please refer to Step 2, outlined in this article: Pay for business expenses with personal funds.
